Retail Offer and Placing Overview

The retail offer is part of a broader fundraising initiative that includes a placing of new shares through an accelerated bookbuilding process. The total issue of new ordinary shares, including those offered in the retail offer and the placing, will account for approximately 11.2% of Cohort’s existing issued share capital.

The net proceeds from the placing will primarily be used to fund the acquisition of EM Solutions, a company held by Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited (EOS), while the proceeds from the retail offer will support general corporate needs.

Retail Offer Details

Eligibility: The offer is open to new investors and existing retail shareholders based in the UK, with a minimum subscription of £250 per investor.
Maximum Subscription: The total demand under the retail offer is capped at £1 million.
Scaling Back: Cohort reserves the right to scale back applications at its discretion.
No Commission: No commission will be charged for applications via PrimaryBid.

Conditions and Timing

The retail offer is conditional upon the admission of the new shares to AIM, which is expected to take place at 8:00 a.m. on 25 November 2024. Admission will occur simultaneously with the placing, and the offer will not proceed without the successful completion of both the retail offer and the placing.

The Company has structured the retail offer separately from the placing to ensure that retail investors, who are important to Cohort, have the opportunity to participate.
